Rapid Prototyping with HCI Design Patterns

Introduction to learn various ways to rapidly prototype interface design ideas. Explores the theory behind rapid prototyping and how it relates to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Students study low fidelity prototyping methods such as FIDO design and paper prototyping, and then move into higher fidelity prototyping methods, such as throwaway digital prototyping. Evolutionary prototyping and interface building using high-level programming languages are covered. In addition to software prototyping, students perform blank model prototyping for physical devices.
